Palm Angels FW22 Sends a Message of Laid-Back Individuality
Under a canopy of inverted palm trees.
Under a canopy of upside-down palm trees and a blinding light panel emitting the orange hues of a California sunset, founder and creative director Francesco Ragazzi showcased his vision for Palm Angels Fall/Winter 2022, a bold and dreamy interpretation inspired by the brand’s Los Angeles roots.
Classic silhouettes including shearling jackets, blazers, bombers, tracksuits, and cardigan jackets exude a loose and relaxed demeanor, dressed in animal print, stars, botanical print, palm tree motifs, and spraypaint flame graphics. Leather jackets are adorned with hand-painted portraits, and outwear pieces mix and match showy colors and materials through intricate paneling and collar details.

Continuing to blur the lines of luxury, tracksuit bands and island graphics arrive on the leisure suits, bathrobes are secured by flowy contrast-stitched waistbands, plush leopard-print wrist cuffs are added to printed silk pajamas, and glistening rhinestones are fixed onto oversized tuxedo blazers.
Accessories including the 8 Moncler Genius Palm Angels Moon Boots, collaborative Vans skate shoes, enameled palm necklaces, compact cross-body bags with Palm closers, and a broad range of sunglasses round out the seasonal offerings.
“Palm Angels fosters a liberated way of being that glorifies individuality. Founder and creative director Francesco Ragazzi nurtures a fantasy that is real, with a dash of magic, inviting his angels to come as they are,” writes Palm Angels.
